About the Two Figures Painting
Francis Bacon was a city person that painted
the people around him, alone in his studio.
Landscapes were not a subject he worked with
often. In this 1978 landscape painting by
the artist, he has brought the outdoors inside.
It could easily be seen as a landscape encased
in glass, and placed in his studio. He has
caged nature, just as he caged the people
in his paintings.
"I need the city; I need to know there
are people around me strolling, arguing, fucking—living,
and yet I go out very rarely; I stay here
in my cage." Francis Bacon Quote |
